Solid biomechanics can improve your adjusting skills — no matter the size of your frame!

Do you often feel disadvantaged as a smaller clinician? Do you want to learn how to increase your strength and effectiveness, or maybe you simply want to improve your adjusting skills no matter the size of your frame? Globally renowned clinician and educator Dr. Nikita Vizniak has been teaching adjusting joint mobes and exercises therapy for over 20 years, and is bringing his all-star student and now colleague, Dr. Katherine Chung (4’11”), to show the effectiveness of solid biomechanics and development of explosive power – get better at what you do!

Have fun, get real time feedback, save your hands, improve outcomes and prolong your career.

You will get the tools to make your treatments easier and more effective. With online video support at prohealthsys.com, attend the live seminar and learn from home.

We make smaller people stronger and more effective!
